🔹 About This Episode:
Many people jump into detox protocols hoping to improve their health—but what if detoxing too soon is actually making them worse? In this episode of Longevity with Nathalie Niddam, I’m joined by renowned environmental medicine expert Dr. Jill Crista to uncover the hidden dangers of mold illness, mycotoxins, and one of the biggest mistakes people make when trying to heal. We explore why mold is far more than a respiratory problem, how it can silently contribute to chronic fatigue, brain fog, hormone disruption, immune dysfunction, and accelerated aging, and why many people remain “non-responders” until environmental toxins are addressed.
Dr. Crista also explains the critical differences between mold, mold spores, and mycotoxins, why some people become severely ill while others appear unaffected, and how hidden water damage inside modern homes can sabotage your health without obvious warning signs.
